Avante Announces Agreement With Target Park To Deploy Mast Units In Above-Ground Parking Facilities Across Canada And The United State

• Avante has entered into a partnership agreement with Target Park to deploy its MAST units across above-ground parking lots in Canada and the United States. MAST will serve as the primary security layer across Target Park locations, addressing the safety challenges inherent to open-air parking environments.
• The engagement is structured with a forward-looking technology roadmap, with a planned evolution into automated parking services including vehicle identification, real-time lot monitoring, and streamlined customer access, expanding Avante's recurring revenue base and demonstrating MAST's scalability beyond traditional security applications.

Toronto, ON (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Avante Corp. (TSX.V: XX) (OTC: ALXXF) (“Avante” or the “Company”) a global provider of technology-enabled security solutions and services, is pleased to announce that Target Park Group Inc. (“Target Park”), a commercial parking operator dedicated to identifying and revitalizing underutilized parking facilities across Canada and the United States, has selected Avante's Mobile Automated Surveillance Tower (“MAST”) platform to deliver mobile, intelligent, real-time security across its above-ground parking portfolio.

MAST is Avante's next-generation mobile security and surveillance tower, designed for remote and high-risk environments where fixed infrastructure is impractical or insufficient. Powered by solar energy with generator backup and operating on cellular connectivity, MAST requires no local power or network connections and integrates Avante’s HALO technology to provide autonomous surveillance and real-time threat detection.

Under the terms of the agreement, Avante will deploy MAST towers across select Target Park's above-ground lots in Canada and the United States, providing 24/7 surveillance. MAST's AI-powered surveillance capabilities with human-verified monitoring through Avante's Control Centre, will provide Target Park proactive threat detection and rapid incident response across its facilities. Target Park has 700+ parking locations across Canada and the United States.

Emmanuel Mounouchos, Founder, Chief Executive Officer and Board Chair of Avante, commented, "This agreement with Target Park reflects exactly the kind of partnership MAST was built for. We are not simply providing security, we are laying the groundwork for a smarter, technology-enabled operation. The ability to begin with a security mandate and evolve into automated parking services is a compelling demonstration of MAST's scalability and the recurring value it can deliver to operators like Target Park."

Chris Sakkas, Chief Operating Officer of Target Park, commented, “Partnering with Avante and deploying MAST across our portfolio allows us to immediately elevate safety and security across our parking facilities while setting the stage for future innovation. Today, MAST provides us with a reliable, intelligent security layer that helps protect our assets and customers in real time. Looking ahead, we see significant opportunity to leverage the same platform to enhance operational efficiency through automated parking capabilities, making our facilities smarter, more accessible, and more valuable over time.”

The engagement is structured with a forward-looking technology roadmap. In the initial phase, MAST will serve as the primary security layer across Target Park locations across Canada, addressing the safety challenges inherent to open-air parking environments. As the deployment matures, MAST’s HALO infrastructure will be leveraged to enable automated parking services including vehicle identification, real-time lot monitoring, and streamlined customer access, allowing Target Park to extract additional operational value from the same platform without incremental hardware investment.
